Theocharakis Foundation

<h3>The Theocharakis Foundation</h3>
The <strong>Basil and Marina Theocharakis Foundation</strong> is opposite the Hellenic Parliament, in Athens’s cultural, political and commercial heart. The Foundation’s premises on the corner of Merlin and Vassilissis Sofias streets were designed by Vassilis Tsagris during the last years of the 1920s; built in the eclectic style of the inter-war period, the building—which was listed in 1985–borrows freely from many European styles. Having served a variety of functions down the years, the <strong>B &amp; M Theocharakis Foundation acquired the premises in 2005</strong>.

The building’s exterior was renovated in line with plans drawn up by Dimitris Agiostratitis, while the Foundation’s interior was reorganized by the architectural firm P. Tzonos-G. Heupel ensured that the resultant spaces provided all the facilities required by a contemporary cultural centre: galleries for temporary and permanent exhibitions, an auditorium for musical events, lectures and conferences, an Art Shop, a Café and a data access area. The architectural design was informed by a desire to achieve maximum functionality coupled with a high-quality aesthetic and recognizable personality. In addition, the Foundation has ensured full access for people with disabilities.

Six d.o.g.s.

<h3>Six dogs</h3>
Six dogs is an all-day/all-night cultural entertainment centre at the heart of Athens’ Historical Center (Monastiraki), which organically combines each one of its elements: a <strong>Gig Space</strong>, a <strong>Project Space</strong>, a <strong>Bar</strong>, a <strong>Foyer</strong>, and a <strong>Garden</strong>. It’s not introduced as a new space but as a new model for a room. It is suggested as a space which aims at constantly creating and maintaining a high-profile dynamic nucleus of cross-genre activities in a part of the city, which is natural to happen, aiming at being both avant-garde and pop.

Having a realistic average of hosting 500+ events each year, the space keeps up a hyperactive profile that is never indifferent. It is <strong>open from 10 in the morning till late in the night daily</strong>, serving a wide range of local goodies, unique cocktails, and homemade delights, all in a price-friendly package. One of the most dynamic Athens-based architectural offices, Point Supreme Architects, has re-designed the whole space.

<strong>The Foyer
</strong>The Foyer is a bright and relaxing space for the get-together, which functions as a sub-space for its neighbouring Gig Space since it has a wide opening connecting the two, thus serving as an in-between space, as well as an individual Bar/Café, depending on the occasion.

<strong>The Gig Space
</strong>The Gig Space is probably the nucleus of the complex: a flexible and neutral studio space that is configured for anything from live gigs, theatrical performances, parties, and screenings, to educational programs, workshops, seminars and lectures, both by young Greek artists and acts from abroad, constantly emerging, always fresh. With an emphasis on music, equally thrown upon live or DJ gigs, the space’s sound system is active almost on a year-round basis, offering an ideal experience of a solid and complete gig.

<strong>The Garden</strong>
Four months of daily hard work, 15 tones of 60-year-old trash, hundreds of meters of cable, tens of kilos of Swedish plywood, loads of river sand, a lot of feel-good workers, and most of all, respect for the natural surroundings that were yet to be uncovered underneath the muddy layers, and the back Garden opened its doors to the general public at the end of August 2010. The Garden is open from 10 in the morning, daily, till late at night, offering comfy custom wooden seating, handmade hammocks, Free Wi-Fi, many plugs around the trees (!) for laptops, shavers, etc., and many more.

The <strong>menu</strong> focuses on seasonal products and local groceries, serving Ice Teas, a large variety of Cocktails, homemade Deserts, Draught Beers, Bagels, Soups, six HOT d.o.g.s (of course!), a wide range of warm liquors, specially blended flavoured-infused Vodkas (Vanilla, Fig, Ginger, etc.). The Garden functions in an almost-silent bar way, handling the weight of the attention to the people and the surrounding natural space.

Booze Cooperativa

<h3>Booze Cooperativa</h3>
Booze Cooperativa was once known as the most innovative bar in Athens back in 1989. Today, its activities have expanded to include a well-organized <strong>canteen</strong>, <strong>exhibition spaces</strong>, and a <strong>theatre stage</strong> for visitors to enjoy.

In October 2010, Booze Cooperativa grew its premises by adding 5,000 square meters to its existing property. The new building block located beside the historic property at 57 Kolokotroni has become part of the multipurpose space, offering new <strong>meeting places</strong> for Athenian locals and a creative <strong>hub for artists</strong>.

The extension features a <strong>large stoa</strong>, <strong>two additional bars</strong>, a <strong>gallery</strong>, a designated area for <strong>book launches</strong> (Etage Litteraire), a <strong>seminar area</strong>, a <strong>restaurant</strong> (currently under construction), and many more places that will be gradually utilized to contribute to cultural and other events.

Booze Cooperativa has become a popular destination for alternative performances and theatrical events by amateur or professional groups. Additionally, visual artists can present their work in a unique and aesthetically pleasing space. The area also houses exhibitions of emerging and established artists.

Various events, such as <strong>live music concerts</strong>, <strong>screenings</strong>, <strong>press conferences</strong>, and <strong>university lectures</strong>, occur throughout the building.

The Project Gallery

<h3>The Project Gallery</h3>
The Project Gallery is a new art space in the historical centre of Athens, at Monastiraki (Metro station) at 3 Normanou on the 1st floor.

A minimal space with an industrial grey floor, black iron and glass windows, and dividing doors spanning 150sq.m.

The space also has access to a balcony ideal for smokers.

The space is ideal for company events or private parties, with a catering facility upon request.

Herakleidon Museum

Pavlou Str </strong>are among the most beautiful and best examples of neoclassical<strong> architecture of the 19th century </strong>in Athens and have been fully restored according to strict specifications (lighting system utilising optical fibres, sound system, projector, classrooms for educational activities, et al.). Moreover, the archaeological site and the <strong>metro station </strong>of Thissio are only minutes away.</p>

Benaki Museum

<h3>The Benaki Museum</h3>

The initial collection of Antonis Benakis is the core of the museum’s collection, including works of ancient Byzantine, post-Byzantine, Islamic and traditional art. Its collections also include works of Asian (mainly Chinese) and Coptic art.
